Pray this Lazaroo in desperation:

“Then David said to Joab and all the people with him, ‘Tear your clothes and put on sackcloth and walk in mourning in front of Abner.’ King David himself walked behind the bier. They buried Abner in Hebron, and the king wept aloud at Abner’s tomb. All the people wept also.”
(2 Samuel 3:31-32)

In the wake of tragedy, Jesus

You enabled David to act decisively and with wisdom.
As a result, the people followed his example.

Please LORD –

when tragedy strikes –

help me do the same.

Pray this Lazaroo with lavish love:

“I always thank my God as I remember you in my prayers, because I hear about your love for all his holy people…”
(Philemon 1:4-5)

I can’t show love to everyone who needs it, Jesus!

So when I see or hear of one of Your saints
showing love to the ones I can’t

my heart is warmed.

I know Yours is, too!

It takes us all of us, doesn’t it?

Only together can we

help lift every burden
dry every tear

share the anguish
of every aching heart.

Seek Him now, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“I will be like a lion to Ephraim, like a great lion to Judah. I will tear them to pieces and go away; I will carry them off, with no one to rescue them. Then I will return to my lair until they have borne their guilt and seek my face—in their misery they will earnestly seek me.”
(Hosea 5:14-15)

I don’t want it to come to that, Jesus.

Let me own up to my guilt now.

May not misery, but love!

draw me into Your very heart.

Pray this Lazaroo with lavish love:

“No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment. Otherwise, the new piece will pull away from the old, making the tear worse. And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new wineskins.”
(Mark 2:21-22)

You were doing a New Thing, Jesus.

Their old ways couldn’t handle it.

I beg You!

Do a New Thing in me!

Pray this Lazaroo in grateful trust:

“There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens: a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak, a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace.”
(Ecclesiastes 3:1, 7-8)

We want to focus on what we think are the positives, don’t we, Jesus?

But there’s a time for

tearing
silence
hate
war

The key is to look to You for our direction

at all times.
